Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) Steering Wheel boss kit

Can anyone suggest where I can get hold of a boss kit for a 2011 Plus 4?

Also, is there a good way to get the centre off my existing steering wheel? - standard factory build issue leather

Boss kit from Motolita? Assuming you are buying one of them.

To remove the standard factory leather steering wheel, the current one WITHOUT the air bag, is straightforward.

There are 3 screws holding the front pad. The screws are accessed from behind the front pad and there is one screw on each of the spokes.
2 are 3mm hex heads, and one is a large Phillips head.
Unscrew these and the front pad will be free. Be careful to hold the front pad as there is the horn wire is attached to the front pad.
Mark the straightahead position on the shaft so that you refit it in the correct place.
Then loosen but do not remove the 3/4 inch / 19mm nut.
Give the spokes a firm bash and the steering wheel should come free, but not bash you in the face because you have left the nut in place.

Thanks WW, had a look at the Motolita site - do I need any spacers, accessories etc? EEEK!

You will need the specific boss for the Morgan, it is the concertina one.
It collapses in the event of a crash.
The boss kit comes with an aluminium ring and the 8 mm nuts and bolts.
And you will need a horn push, which fits into the boss.

If I remember correctly the boss came with plane bolts which I change for locktites as those were fitted on a Motolita I bought about 40 years ago and I liked the extra security they give.

When I fitted my Motolita it did not exactly line up in the straight ahead position. That is easily fixed by a trip to the local tyre fitters to get the wheel realigned.
